Alright, feather foot vs lead foot, post up your numbers!

chicagofan00 · 07-19-2022, 07:23 PM

I'm usually around the 16mpg mark or so.

Brodie82x · 07-19-2022, 07:27 PM

The display shows mpg? Jk but I really don't want to know with gas prices this high I'd end up driving slower than what it's made for lol

Vishal50028 · 07-19-2022, 09:44 PM

Been around 22 lately mostly highway cruisin in sport

Check the video I just posted in the other thread. But, I also went Fairfield to Santa Cruz and back, on a tank for Wett2. Probably like 320 miles and most of them were at Mexico cruising speed.

I thought mine was bad

15.3mpg (6MT though)

JDUNITNOW · 07-19-2022, 11:42 PM

I'm at about 17 to 19 mpg so I must be putting my foot in it . Gas mileage sucks right now but I'm loving it.

A lot of highway driving so averaging around 21-22 mpg.

MackSea70 · 07-20-2022, 08:32 AM

I'm at 15.8 - but I've been doing some highway trips so it's up. I prefer to see it in the 13s. Matter of fact, when I see the average creep up, I drive it harder.

I'm looking forward to my TRX being delivered. I hear it's pretty easy to get the average between 6-8.

We live in a wonderful era where we can buy cars with 500, 600, 700+ HP with a factory warranty.

My 74 year old dad constantly asks me what kind of MPG I get in my M cars and I'm like - you are entirely missing the point!

Gfit · 07-20-2022, 08:55 AM

Both my M3 and my wife's X3M are in the 11s. Ouch! Nah. That's why we bought them.

Whats also interesting is that my new 992 GTS is at 11.3 and I expected it to be a bit more frugal consumption wise. I guess ill blame it on early mileage tunes

DonJuan · 07-20-2022, 12:13 PM

Around 18-19 mixed driving.
I just wish we had bigger gas tanks! The gas station owner is loving me right now!

Got through the break-in in 20 days!

'Cane · 07-20-2022, 02:06 PM

Don't know, don't care, didn't buy it for fuel economy. If I had to guess, it'd be somewhere around 15. On my drive home from picking it up in Maryland (1000+ hwy miles) I did average 24mph.

stewie177 · 07-20-2022, 04:43 PM

Today over 125 miles on motorway got 31.3 from my F90. Same journey 3 weeks made 22.8 from my Exige

WTH are you talking about, does the 15 MPG not say I tend to drive the car hard? I'm sure you could keep up with me on the hwy, but we won't be going slow, that's for damn sure.

TJR_///M3 · 07-20-2022, 05:50 PM

I never looked, but since you asked, from factory:
12,900 miles
23.0mpg
49.0mph
No track, lots of freeways, and I am not a 'lightfoot'...

luckylingy · 07-20-2022, 08:05 PM

24.4 mpg since reset 3,000 miles ago

zambarossa · 07-20-2022, 10:52 PM

23 mpg since factory at 10,000 miles (included a few long trips). Mixed daily driving I average around 21mpg. That is roughly the same or better than what I got with my f30 340 & 335.

You said 24 mph and not 24 mpg at the end. He was suggesting that he didn't want to be stuck behind you averaging 24 mph over 1000 miles. I guess he was joking but you can't really be sure these days.
